  1. UK plates: L793 PNU Frame: JZA80-0013922 Has anyone got information about this Supra? I am her owner right now in Estonia, but she was in Japan from November 1993 to August 2000, and then has been in UK since then until summer of 2010. Since summer 2010 to spring 2014 she was at Finland. Finally, from spring 2014 she is at Estonia. Maybe somebody knew one of her owners? Would like to collect more memorable photos of her. I have all photos since 2010, but not until then. Thanks in advance. P.S. She has had 7 owners in UK.
  2. I have had same issue on my 93' JDM NA Auto. Check out the fuel pump wiring and check the relay box for old soldering points... Anyways, I had my mechanic remake the fuel pump circuit, so I suggest to talk to local mechanic, he will find a way out.
  3. Hello to all members of mkivsupra club. My name is Vladimir and I'm from Estonia. As English is my third language, there can be some mistakes in my sentences . The reason I joined here is because I went further financially to making my childhood dream come true and wanted to find out more about the Supra. When I was 13, I saw one of the very rare Supras in my town and it eventually became to be my dream car. As time past, I was making my money up and probably now, as 19 year old student, I'm very close to getting a good NA 93'-95' Supra, which is good as a first Supra. Sadly one in my town was pretty much dead, right now I'm trying to find a good NA for reasonable price. The forum itself is freaking GOLDEN for new enthusiasts to find out new information for them. In few days of reading threads I doubled my knowledge of Supras and now have idea, how to buy the car, thanks to user "mawby", also the common problems about this car. Would like to say THANK YOU guys for being here and making my dream more visible from technical side. Have a good day and race safely. Right now my car is: Jeep Grand Cherokee 2.7 CRD 2003 year with 276k kilometers on odometer as second owner.

    Supra In Portsmouth

    Sorry for off-top. How do You guys think, how much is NA 93'-98' Supra with good service history and condition? I've found some worth ~6.000EUR auto transmission. Is it good price for them? I have one 2JZ-GE Manual transmission 93' Supra selling in my town for 6.250 EUR but it has zero owner and service history, also a bit rusty on chassis and motor block, oil leaks and electronics problems (seat not moving, A/C not working).

    Supra price

    @mike23, very true about wanting to buy the Supra. I was offered a NA Manual 1993 3 times repainted J-spec imported Supra with rust spots on engine block and chasis. Has problems with A/C, seats and oil leaks - at least what I saw after visual inspection, not driving it to service. But I want the Supra model so much... My childhood dream.

    Supra price

    Well, as I can tell, no MOT is already suspicious :/
  8. Thank you everyone, who replied. Yesterday I looked on that supra and was very dissapointed. The owner didn't provide any service history nor didn't even know most obvious things, that I asked him (how many owners, oils used for motor, odometer true value, paint job history and etc). Had a lot rusted spots underneath the car and even the engine block was a bit rusty. The engine seemed fine to me. Well, will be looking for another one in UK and Japan, as Baltic countries don't have any left, that deserve attention. Thank You all for attention and informative replies.
  9. Dear club members, I'm trying to look for a good NA Supra and I've found one in my town. Little bit info about the car: - Price: 6500 EUR - 1993 year - 101000+ kilometers (original from Japan) - New dampers and springs - New filters - Aftermarket exhaust - MoMo wheel - OZ Superallegra 18" wheels - Just have gone on dyno After talking with the owner and watching a little bit of history of the car with VIN code, I've found out some problems: 1. This car was bought by this guy in 30th May of 2015, which means he haven't had it for a long time (1 month); 2. The car itself has very good technical inspection result without any faults; 3. The guy told me, that it has a good engine, but has tons of problems with electronics (conditioning doesn't work, radio aerial is not connected, driver seat is not moving and etc. (didn't yet see the car)). What do You think about this car? Is it worth buying? How much would I waste to fix the electronics and potential engine faults? From my experience I can tell, that this car can be just a sell-out for a bigger price and maybe a drowned car (because of the mayor faults in electronics).
